THE RESOLUTIONS

From the author of EVEN IF THE SKY FALLS comes THE RESOLUTIONS, another inspirational and heart-tugging contemporary novel about four friends who make New Year's resolutions for one anotherand the whirlwind of a year that follows.

From hiking trips to four-person birthday parties to never-ending group texts, Jess, Lee, Ryan, and Nora have always been inseparable. But now, with senior year on the horizon, they've been growing apart. And so, as always, Jess makes a plan.

Reinstating their usual tradition of making resolutions together on New Year's Eve, Jess adds a new twist: instead of making their own resolutions, the four friends assign them to one anotherdares like kiss someone you know is wrong for you, find your calling outside your mom's Puerto Rican restaurant, finally learn Spanish, and say yes to everything.

But as the year unfolds, Jess, Lee, Ryan, and Nora each tests the bonds that hold them together. And amid first loves, heartbreaks, and life-changing decisions, beginning again is never as simple as it seems.
